Description

STRELITZIA REGINAE        “Bird of Paradise” 

1 scoop (approx 40 seeds)

Sprouting: 6-42 days. 

Position:  Move into 15cm pots when they have 2-3 leaves. Place in indirect light & keep soil moist. 

Easy to grow by seed or division, this an evergreen, perennial, flowering plant is native to South America and grows to 2 m tall.

It is slow-growing and will not usually flower until three to five years after germination, and only when properly established. Division of the plant may affect flowering patterns. The flowers are, however, quite long-lasting once they appear. Most of the flowers appear in winter and early spring.  The flowers stand above the greenery at the tips of long stalks with a hard, beak-like sheath giving it the appearance of a bird's head and beak; and these long stalks make a great perch for the birds which come to pollinate the flowers.

A low-maintenance plant that is easy to grow in the garden.  Fairly tolerant of soil conditions, it will thrive in rich loamy soil, especially if it gets plenty of water throughout the year. Once established, it needs only a little water and will flower several times each year if cared for. It will do well in full-sun to semi-shade and should respond well to regular feeding with a controlled release fertiliser and compost.  It may also need to be sheltered from frost, as they can be sensitive to temperatures below 10C.

Bird of Paradise

I haven't actually planted the seeds yet and so can’t provide a full review. But I am very happy with Chakra Garden's excellent service and I am also very impressed with the fast shipping and secure packaging; full instructions were also provided. Thank you.

Review of Birds Of Paradise

I can’t review the actual plant as it hasn’t grown or gone through a full cycle yet. Price - amount of seeds - germination- unknown.
I believe that the price and the amount of seeds you get is pretty good.
Fast shipping.
I also liked the packaging, it was sent in what was needed. Nothing over the top or wasteful. Package it was sent in was perfect.
Instructions clearly printed.
Correct amount of seeds.

Thank you Chakra Garden :)

So pleased with the swift delivery of my seeds. The borage has already sprouted and I can’t wait to see how the rest progress over time. I will certainly be making another purchase in the future.
